## One Piece Chapter 1046, pages 0-2: Raizo - Chapter: 1046 - Pages: 0-2 - Characters: Germa 66, Charlotte Pudding, Chocolat Town Citizens, Monkey D. Luffy, Kaido, Zunesha, Joy Boy ### Summary Page 0: The title page reads "Chapter 1046: Raizo." It continues Germa 66's cold-blooded voyage, volume 9: "A pair of intruders on Pudding's turf - Chocolat Town!!" The cover-story image shows Chocolat Town reacting to silhouettes of intruders connected to Germa 66's rescue thread, while the island residents look alarmed. This is official cover-story material rather than the main Wano battle, so it is retained as useful extra context. Page 1: On the rooftop, Kaido watches Luffy bouncing and laughing to the rhythm of "Doom dut da da." Luffy tries to decide what to call his last move and jokes that it was "Gomu Gomu no... something," while Kaido, still battered, asks him, "Just tell me one thing. Who the hell... are you?" The sound of the Drums of Liberation also reaches Zunesha, who says the rhythm is nostalgic and calls, "Joyboy... Hey, Joyboy..." The page holds the aftermath of Gear Fifth's reveal in place. Kaido is no longer only fighting an upstart rubber man; he is facing something he cannot identify, while Zunesha recognizes the same rhythm from eight centuries ago. Page 2: Luffy answers Kaido's question with his own name and dream. As the rhythm continues and the island looms above the Flower Capital, Zunesha thinks that it is as if Joyboy is right there and that the whole situation feels like fate. Kaido asks who Luffy is, and Luffy replies, "Who, me? I'm Monkey D. Luffy!! The man who's gonna... surpass you and become... King of the Pirates!!" His grin fills the page, making the answer both ordinary and enormous. Even after the mythic Nika reveal, Luffy defines himself in the same terms he always has: by his name, his will, and the dream of becoming Pirate King.
